The Education and Human Resources Core Research (ECR) program funds fundamental research on education and workforce development in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) focused on STEM Learning and Learning Environments, Broadening Participation in STEM, and STEM Workforce Development. The convening will bring together researchers who have been funded by ECR to share their research results and ongoing studies to better inform the continuing research funded by the program. Principal Investigators supported with ECR funding will attend a 2-day meeting where they will share their own work, but also hear from luminaries in the field on the broad issues converging across the research areas supported by ECR. The goals of the convening are to engage interdisciplinary leaders around the findings of their research, identify big issues related to fundamental research in STEM education, solicit PI feedback on opportunities and barriers to rapid advancement within the ECR research community, and help shape the field's future research and development efforts. The meeting will strengthen and deepen understanding of project activities and results, the challenges encountered by PIs conducting fundamental research, and the foundational knowledge that has been developed and accumulated by these projects. Additionally, the meeting will increase the PIs' knowledge of the wide range of research topics in STEM education that are addressed by the ECR program, and identify opportunities and gaps in the research.The approach to planning and executing the convening will include appointing program committee members, identifying session formats, coordinating participation of keynote speakers and panelists, developing a web site to support the event, facilitating and participating in sessions at the event, writing a report based on the content of the event, and promoting and disseminating information after the event (e.g., press releases, blogs, and social media). During the planning process, the team will actively seek input from potential attendees. They will use the input to focus the convening on what matters most to attendees. They will broadly disseminate the resources produced by the event and a final report on the convening's outcomes through social media channels, newsletters, and other connections we have throughout the research community, including through resource centers supported by NSF. The online resources will be open, broadly advertised, and permanently available. Additional stakeholders, practitioners, and policymakers will be invited as panelists and keynote speakers to help encourage discussions toward broader impacts aligned with overall ECR goals.

教育和人力资源核心研究 (ECR) 计划资助科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 领域教育和劳动力发展的基础研究，重点关注 STEM 学习和学习环境、扩大 STEM 的参与以及 STEM 劳动力发展。此次会议将汇集 ECR 资助的研究人员，分享他们的研究成果和正在进行的研究，以便更好地为该计划资助的持续研究提供信息。获得 ECR 资助的主要研究人员将参加为期 2 天的会议，他们将在会上分享自己的工作，同时也会听取该领域杰出人士关于 ECR 支持的研究领域所涉及的广泛问题的意见。会议的目标是让跨学科领导者参与他们的研究成果，确定与 STEM 教育基础研究相关的重大问题，征求 PI 对 ECR 研究界快速发展的机会和障碍的反馈，并帮助塑造该领域的未来研究和开发工作。会议将加强和加深对项目活动和结果、PI进行基础研究所遇到的挑战以及这些项目所开发和积累的基础知识的理解。此外，会议将增加 PI 对 ECR 计划所涉及的 STEM 教育广泛研究主题的了解，并确定研究中的机会和差距。规划和执行会议的方法将包括任命计划委员会成员，确定会议形式，协调主旨发言人和小组成员的参与，开发支持活动的网站，促进和参与活动会议，根据活动内容撰写报告，以及在活动结束后宣传和传播信息事件（例如新闻稿、博客和社交媒体）。在规划过程中，团队将积极寻求潜在参与者的意见。他们将利用这些意见将会议重点放在对与会者最重要的事情上。他们将通过社交媒体渠道、时事通讯和我们在整个研究界的其他联系（包括通过 NSF 支持的资源中心）广泛传播该活动产生的资源以及有关会议结果的最终报告。在线资源将开放、广泛宣传且永久可用。其他利益相关者、从业者和政策制定者将被邀请作为小组成员和主旨发言人，以帮助鼓励讨论，以实现与总体 ECR 目标相一致的更广泛影响。
